x-box 360 a/v problems

cmdknw · 04-01-2009, 07:02 PM

I have no video...have sound but screen is black. I've tried calling x-box and they want $100 to fix it. It's not the cables, is there any other fixes for this??
Thanks

If it's out of warranty, then I'm afraid you'll have to send it to Microsoft for the $100 repair since it's not related to the red rings of death, but it's still hardware oriented. Or, for just a little more, order a refurbished 360 from Tiger Direct for around $150, then if you want, send your broken one into Microsoft, and sell it on ebay or Craigslist for the same price once you get it back.

do you get any lights flash on the front of the xbox? Have you tried plugging into another TV or different medium... HDTV/VGA/etc. btw what is your connection? normal AV? ie 3 plug rca. or 5plug HDTV.

i suggest another TV, because your input on the TV could be crap :P (lack of a better word)
